I can’t say — yet — that anything I’ve been taking has been truly effective. I have been sleeping a lot, even with a caffeine pill and that’s bizarre. I’m not with a cloudy head and feel like my thinking is foggy…which is good, but it feels like my body is working overtime to do things, making me sleepy.
Maybe working overtime to keep the fog away. So on the upside, a weak form of clarity has happened. I say weak because unlike Adderall, the stuff I’m taking isn’t allowing me to retain information — just receptive to be aware of the information. Even as I type this, I have been making A LOT of spelling errors. A little more than usual that I have to go back and correct.
It’s only been less than 24-hours so I won’t call it a failed experiment just yet. I go to work today so we’ll see how that plays out. Right now, I’m, tired. I took only two pills… no three, today. The coluracetam and the alpha-gpc. That was around 4am. I went back to sleep after studying around 6:30am.
I woke up… a little groggy so took the caffeine pill and a cup of coffee with breakfast. Guess what? I could go back to sleep. I got to see what that’s all about. I have long since said that ‘heavy thinking’ and stress can wear a person down. Maybe I’m stressed and I don’t realize it. Consciously, I feel these are the best days of my life with school and such. Of course, I need a better job but that’s why I’m studying extra hard on the A+ Certification process.
This week I’m ordering that other pill, Adrafinil. Reports say that it comes closer to the effects of Adderall so we shall see. As it stands now, only the Coluracetam does a modest job of making me ‘work’ or desire to be productive. The Alpha-GPC? I think it’s just sugar pills, honestly.
